Obama has done what his CFR masters told him to do:
Drive the U.S. economy to the ground so the economy of the NAU can be implemented, and greenbacks replaced with Ameros (aka NWO dollars). The NAU is coming (as Daniel prophesied, the NAU is one of 10 super-nations).
ITS WORKING!!! (cheers the Illuminist leaders)

The recession, which started in December 2007So the recession started in December 2007 and nobody noticed it until the very end of the presidential campaign? Looks like the press is still covering for the messiah.
To: Just A Nobody
So the press is definitely lying when it says that the recession started in December 2007.
To: TheThinker
So the press is definitely lying when it says that the recession started in December 2007. Yes and No. Yes, we were not in a recession when they began spouting all over the place that we were.
No, they are not lying because they simply changed the definition of recession to include a "slowdown" in growth.
Like the Allstate commercial that began running in early 2007 said: "We may not be in a recession, but it sure does feel like one."

Good grief! When will it stop? The Marxist wants the Nation on it’s knees. He wants total submission to his agenda. The banksters want it too. They want the “global government” to come to the rescue when we are in the dirt.

come on... it’s already over 15% in reality... using the instrument we used in the 70’s....

Here's the thing, folks... The Federal minimum wage was increased today. This means operating costs for many business in the private economy (or what's left of it) just went up. Costs will need to be cut because revenues are down.
When you start your layoffs, be sure to target Obama voters. They are communists and don't believe in the free market system. So, don't reward them with a free market job. Let them contact Obama for the communist goodies they so eagerly seek. Don't reward communists with free market jobs...

I am no expert but I suspect that gummint has a firm number on the folkls they get FICA from. To single digits. I suspect they have a fair estimate of the number of folks present, from census info and the like. I suspect one can do some basic demographic research and extend the results intelligently and come up with a pretty fair estimate of what unemployment actually is. It would be interesting to see how this number varies from the published figures of folks applying for or receiving unemployment benefits.

"Mr President, where are the jobs?"
The bipartisan, upper-middle and upper class white feminists demanded "women's jobs," and the boss's misses always get what they want.

So cash flows to foreign countries will decline. That's too bad. Oil and foreign product prices will continue to go up over the long term. Spending will increase, while revenues decline.
Good. We'll get new leadership in business, politics and academia before long, and many production hobbies will turn into businesses.

New data out today, July - 585,000 jobs lost, likely to be revised, most revisions are higher then orginal estimate. 585k jobs is a lot og jobs to lose in one month and we’d been running at this pace for almost a year now. Very bad.
